A short video featuring the Maneki Neko collection of Diane Flint as seen on Animal Planet's "Cats 101." It appeared as part of a segment on Japanese Bobtails. The segment can be seen online here:

However they cut around 95% of the Maneki Neko info. So here's what you won't see there.
I was thilled to see the little Lucky Gourd Maneki Neko I made on Diane's shelf.

I have 33 maneki neko statues (several with multiple cats on them) and counting. I would love to have a collection like hers.
